“Paying attention is a form of reciprocity with the living world, receiving the gifts with open eyes and open heart.” ― Robin Wall Kimmerer, Braiding Sweetgrass: Indigenous Wisdom, Scientific Knowledge and the Teachings of Plants
Lya Shvartz (b. 1992, Tel-Aviv) is a self-taught visual artist based on Bornholm, Denmark.
What motivates her artistic practice is a quest for beauty and groundedness in the small, natural phenomenons that are still readily available for us. Her visual language is inspired by nostalgia, fantasy and folklore, and guided by fleeting threshold moments, abundant with specific colors and light, working towards a poetic and intuitive visual language.
